VariCAD 2016 English - Lesson 7/49 - 2D vs. 3D Video Lecture | VariCAD: A Fundamental Training - Design Softwares

hello all we are here for one more
lesson of this valley car 2016 training
course and in this lesson we are going
to see about to leave vs 3d I want to
start to explain you that very cut has a
unique functionality which is to save on
the same file information for both
environments 2d and 3d without a need to
have different files for each of the
environments and this is quite unique
and very practical way to work with gap
besides that it's important to
understand what we can do in each of the
environments to the entry d for that
purpose I've opened a file one of the
sample files that we have inside the
standard installation and you can see at
this moment the 3d environment and the
first important concept is to see in
these toolbars to the N 3d and you
switch from one side to the other only
by clicking in one of the icons now you
see that the 3d icon is a little
highlighted so we are inside the 3d and
what we can get on the 3d it's a
physical model as you can see here which
you can manipulate in terms of zooming
pan what I'm doing now rotate and this
is the kind of work you can get on a
typical 3d environment so you have a
physical model you can analyze physical
properties you can study assemblies
problems on the assemblies if one
component is interfering with the other
so it's this kind of information
besides some functionalities which you
get from the 3d model itself because you
can support these parts to other kind of
programs like camp programs to make
milling on top of these and other
programs to make analysis all of them
work with 3d physical models okay
besides this you have a 2d which I will
switch now you have a 2d with this kind
of information what we can call circles
limes I mention you in resume graphical
information and this is also very
important on today technology and on the
opinions you might search a little over
internet you see that everybody now
points to the 3d as being the best
concept a concept to work in cat but the
2d is still very important because even
being a little slower to produce things
i would say without having an exact data
from anywhere i would say that eighty
percent of the of the companies all
around the world still work much more
with to the information besides or
comparing with 3d because in this kind
of information which you are looking now
you can insert this kind of important
information the dimensions which you
don't have on the 3d side and besides
this you can put something very
important for any process in the world
where you have to produce something
which is tolerances because it's it's
impossible to build anything in any kind
of mechanical process where you say I
will work for this dimension exactly it
is impossible you have to get tolerances
so for example if I go to one dimension
and say for example something like this
and something like this say okay I get
this kind of graphical information
tolerances okay some mechanical process
to produce parts also can import these
graphical information and from this
graphical information can make machines
work okay so it's not only for having
drawings but it's also possible and
convenient in some process to import
these kind of entities but the main
difference you can get and you can
retain is that the 2d is important
because of the machining tolerances
beside others that we have at our at our
disposal here inside varick Adams
probably in other programs like the
finishing symbols dollars that we spoke
about besides the dimensional tolerances
we may get also geometrical tolerances
welding electrical a dalek symbols all
of this information you can insert on
the 2d model okay on the 3d this is very
it's more easy to understand what we are
building and we can get properties like
volume
mass areas it's it's very easy to work
with information on this side but we get
what we get we cannot put informations
on top of this but we can work in such a
way that we can call a half way through
these both environments and for example
we can have this kind of functionality
2d drawing from 3d view and we can
produce from a 3d model automatically to
the information for example views okay
and I will concert' them on this side
and you see that instead of drawing line
by line circle by circle I can make
automatically this kind of creation of
entities if all of you understand it
that if I was doing this line by line it
will take me a huge amount of time it is
important also for example in this kind
of environment to get a projection kind
of a 3d projection of this position of
the part and for example I can make this
okay this is you can see that it seems a
3d part that these are lines in circles
okay this is a projection and composing
the the 2d entities which is in fact the
final goal of the to decide I can for
example create this kind of information
working with the same
model for example to say okay I have a
section here and you see that is very
easy always with the same position with
the same model to get for example a new
situation to get another section and to
compose my drawing in very different
ways for example let's try this and now
this in this and to turn them not here
to turn them around something like that
okay very easy to create this kind of
graphical information two dimensions and
all of this stuff that you need to make
a very clear understanding with the with
the in frog with the needed information
for producing something so these are the
basic ideas and the basic topics for you
to understand what we can get in each
one of this process and i hope it has
been clear these ideas for you
